In 9,5, at least, tile the two windows in the order you desire with the immediate "Arrange" command. (It places the window with focus on the left.). That will communicate to BBEdit how the two windows are placed with respect to one another. Then "Compare two front documents" will keep the windows in the same left-right order.
